Value proposition
Turns rough screen recordings, docs, or prompts into studio-quality branded videos and step-by-step documentation in minutes, and uses AI agents to auto-update entire video libraries whenever a product changes — cutting production time ~10x and localization costs ~95%.
Products and solutions
Agentic video creation platform, Clueso Agents (browser agent that auto-records product walkthroughs and refreshes outdated videos), Clueprints (reusable video style templates), AI voiceovers, avatars, auto-captions, translation (150+ languages), motion graphics, keyframe animation, auto-generated step-by-step help articles, Clueso MCP server + 90 open Agent Skills (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor), browser extension screen recorder.
Unique value
Only platform combining agentic auto-recording + auto-maintenance of video libraries with a full AI editor — videos stay current as the product evolves, solving the "video maintenance problem" that competitors leave manual.
Target customer
SaaS companies and global enterprises — customer education, product marketing, sales enablement, L&D, IT, and internal communications teams.
Industries served
SaaS / Enterprise software, Customer education & support, Sales enablement, Learning & Development / employee training, Product marketing
Technology advantage
Browser-agent that logs into a customer's product, navigates workflows, and captures clean screen recordings autonomously; release-triggered video regeneration; Clueprints for brand consistency; public MCP server + Agent Skills for agent-driven video production; SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified, AWS-hosted, no model training on customer data.
How they differentiate
Unlike avatar-first tools (Synthesia, HeyGen) or manual screen recorders (Loom), Clueso's agents autonomously record the product and auto-update videos on every release, positioning it as an agentic, maintenance-first platform rather than a one-off video generator.
